I logged into my old server and can see the shares there.  I then
tried net view \\<servername> and got an error 54:

  Error 54:  The network is currently busy processing other requests or
is out 
  of resources.  Try again later, or verify your network configuration
to be
  sure that enough network resources are specified.

I have rebooted and even tried both 2.4.0 and 2.2.18 kernels.  I have
restarted smb, networking, inet, etc.

Thanks.  

I also tried making 2.0.7 from tarball, installing and restarting smb.
I had the same results....

Occasionally your car would just die for no reason, and 
you'd have to restart it, but you'd just accept this.
